Unguided Lyrics - Challengers - New Pornographers

In every story, every secret told 

You are not the first to wake up 

To learn your lines before you have the part 

You woke up early and you walk up torn 

You the temporary boarder 

The heat wave humming in the house of cards 

You spun chapter into rapture there 

Yeah you were as brave as traffic 

You chased the spotlight into her arms 

And you forgot that you could file the knot 

That you were still the person sleeping 

The heat wave humming in the house of cards 

A play for the girl 

a cross for a hook 

Sinking into the green sea wonder 

Under the sea 

walking the floor 

Over the waves the wheeling thunder 

Something's unguided in the sky 

Tonight 

There is something unguided in the sky 

You wrote yourself into a corner, safe 

Easy to defend your borders 

A fallen saint into a whispered time 

Killing time because I have to, why? 

Because it isn't mine, remember? 

Killing time because it wasn't mine 

You're earning your stripes 

You're counting the stars 

You're winding your barely working watch 

You're lucky to be 

On a land like you are 

Lucky you've already become 

There's something unguided in the sky 

Tonight 

There is something unguided in the sky 

And why wait 

For the weakened state 

To lie next 

To the weaker sex? 

And why wait 

For the weakened state 

To lie next 

To the weaker sex? 

You're earning your stripes 

You're counting the stars 

You're winding your barely working watch 

You're lucky to be 

On a land like you are 

Lucky you've already become 

There's something unguided in the sky 

Tonight 

There is something unguided in the sky 

There's something unguided in the sky 

Tonight 

There is something unguided in the sky
